Why Hire An Agent For Your New-Home Construction?

By Corrie Forcet, Realtor® of The Forcet Group | KW Suburban Tampa

“New home construction is expected to grow in 2024. Builders are using more sales incentives(like buying down mortgage rates or assistance with closing costs) to win over house hunters who are frustrated with a lack of existing inventory, data shows.” - According to the National Association of Realtors® NAR - 2/29/24

From contract negotiations to coordinating inspections and ensuring timely communication with builders, an agent streamlines the entire buying process. 

No Cost to the Buyer:

When purchasing new construction, utilizing the expertise of a real estate agent is a strategic decision that carries numerous benefits. Contrary to common misconceptions, the commission for your agent is typically covered by the seller, in this case, the construction company, and doesn't impact your buying price. This industry standard means you gain access to expert guidance, negotiation power, and streamlined processes at no additional cost. 

Expert Guidance:

Expert Guidance: Navigating the complexities of new construction can be overwhelming. A real estate agent brings expertise to the table, guiding you through every step of the process.

Insider Knowledge: Agents often have access to information about upcoming developments and insider insights into the local market. This knowledge can help you make informed decisions and find the perfect new build for your needs.

Negotiation Power: Your agent acts as your advocate, ensuring your interests are protected throughout the transaction. They'll review contracts, spot potential pitfalls, and work tirelessly to ensure a smooth and successful closing.

Remember, when it comes to purchasing new construction, having an agent in your corner is not only beneficial but also cost-effective. So why go it alone when you can have expert guidance at no additional cost?

Make the smart move and enlist the help of a real estate agent for your new construction purchase.
